14神是智慧的,又是全能的。但一面来说,神也是单纯的,祂非常简单。当主耶稣在地上的时候,祂很有智慧;但祂也是简单而单纯的。我接触主耶稣的时候非常有享受,因为祂是单纯而简单的。……当你跟某些弟兄谈话的时候,你发现他们非常复杂。但我们的神是简单的;每当我们与祂交谈,会发现祂并不复杂。当祂说是,祂就真是;当祂说不,就真的是不。照样,当祂说白色或黑色的时候,就是指白色或黑色,而不是指灰色。不论神在那一个时刻对我们有什么感觉,祂总是单纯的。祂对我们也许满意,也许不满意,但祂自己总是简单的。
14God is wise and almighty. But in a sense He is also single; He is very simple. When the Lord Jesus was on earth, He was wise; yet He was also simple and single. I very much enjoy having contact with the Lord Jesus because of His singleness and simplicity. However, when you talk to certain brothers, you find that they are extremely complicated. But our God is simple. Whenever we talk to Him, we find that He is not full of complications. When He says yes, He means yes, and when He says no, He means no. Likewise, when He says white or black, He means white or black, not gray. No matter how God may feel about us at a particular time, He is always single. He may be unhappy with us or He may be happy, but He Himself is simple.
